strummer 0 Report post Posted August 26, 2004 What were some of the best lineups for different networks over the years? My all time favorite lineup was Thursdays on NBC in the 80s. 8 -Cosby Show 8:30- Family Ties 9-Cheers 9:30 NightCourt (this may be wrong, but I'm pretty sure it had this slot) 10:00 Hill Street Blues/ then later on LA LAW Loved the Weds. line up on HBO in the early 90s with Dream On, Larry Sanders, and Tales from the Crypt. Never really cared for TGIF I'm pretty sure that ABC used to have Who's the Boss, Head of the Class, and Growing Pains on Tuesday, which was also pretty damn awesome (now that I think of it, I'm pretty sure HOTC was on Weds.) Any others, especially classic lineups from 60s,70s Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Mandarin 0 Report post Posted August 26, 2004 Fox's 2000-200(2?) late night lineup 10:00- Seinfeld 10:30- Frasier 11:00- Simpsons 11:30- Spin City 12:00- Married with Children 12:30- Unhappily Ever After(!) 1:00- Caroline in the City (oh, come on. You liked it.) 1:30- Suddenly Susan ( ) Combine this with the fact they would repeat the same awesome Mighty Taco commercial in between shows, and you've got an awesome lineup. Then they screwed it up by tossing in Mad TV at 12:00 AM in Sept. ('02?), so that ruined it. But it was great before then. Runners up- Last year's GSN Late Night is very close. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it was Whammy, Lingo, Russian Roulette, Truth or Dare and Cram. In some order. Then you had Greed on Sundays, and Weakest Link during the day. And best of all-- you could play these games. On line. Along with the TV. I loved that shit. Also, when I had all those television feeds from other provinces, I had a nice lineup of Simpsons, That 70's Show, Will and Grace and Seinfeld any time I wanted. Since almost so many different networks have Simpsons in syndication, I was able to watch about 5-8 Simpsons episodes (if I was feelin' it). Awesome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the max 0 Report post Posted August 26, 2004 Our local FOX affiliate has a pretty good thing going now starting at 5: 5P: Will and Grace (I don't watch it) 6P: Friends 7P: Everybody Loves Raymond 730P: Seinfeld That's still two good hours of television for me, starting with Friends. Other than that, I can't really think of anything besides FX's Labor Day marathons when they play an entire season of 24. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
treble 0 Report post Posted August 26, 2004 Last summer, TBS had starting at 10 and going until 4:30; Dawson's Creek (x2), Saved By The Bell (x2), Family Matters, Cosby Show, Fresh Prince (x2) (than was switched to Futurama and Family Guy), and Roseanne (x3). Then that Non-Stop Comedy block thing they had with Drew Carey, Seinfeld, Friends, and whatever else went until whenever. I'd usually switch it over to Comedy Network at 4:30 and watch Beat the Geeks and the Daily Show re-run. If I wasn't careful, I'd waste hours in front of the TV.

Guest El Satanico Report post Posted August 27, 2004 Where's The SImpsons in those Sunday lineups? Well unless it was an overall solid lineup I didn't include it. Simpsons were often surrounded by "this spot is reserved for midseason replacement" shows. I was going to include this lineup from 93-94, but The Sinbad Show ruins it.
